Re: non-LFS Apache 1.3.27 w/ LFS Perl 5.8.0 (using mod_perl)

We did compile Apache with CFLAGS=-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 but we're trying to move away from this now, because of vendors like IBM and Oracle not willing to re-compile (websphere mods and mod_ossos) with the same flags. Thus without re-compiling my whole Perl 5.8.0 build I need to come up with a solution. Like I said before Doug MacEachern actually allows you to get away with this in mod_perl 1.27 (with mod_perl 1.24 it would squeal and terminate during compile time). Sorry for my ignorance but it does look like it will work (non-LFS Apache) provided that you don't try to access files larger then 2GB. Is there another low level consideration I'm not taking into account? Everything will work OK if all the components are compiled without large file support. Of course you won't be able to handle files 2GB. Last but not least...Perl 5.6.1 and greater compiles with LFS (default) and Apache has always compiled without it (unless you specifically specify it). Did you re-compile Apache with CFLAGS=-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64? mod_perl 1.x does it for you (i.e. uses perl's cppflags) if you build static (since it builds apache). perl -V:cppflags cppflags='-D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DDEBUGGING -fno-strict-aliasing -I/usr/include/gdbm'; I'm not sure what happen if you build DSO. __ Stas BekmanJAm_pH -- Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide --- http://perl.apache.org mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://use.perl.org http://apacheweek.com http://modperlbook.org http://apache.org http://ticketmaster.com

[MP2 BUG] PerlPassEnv issues
Looks like PerlSetEnv's are not propagated as
expected.
I've pasted my original mail to the list. However,
after going through the code, it looks like
scfg-PassEnv is not synced with Perl's %ENV
structure.
Following is a simpler example:
$ cat /tmp/test.conf
Perl
;
/Perl
PerlPassEnv MY_TEST_VAR
Perl
print MY_TEST_VAR is $ENV{MY_TEST_VAR}\n;
system(echo \shell: MY_TEST_VAR = \$MY_TEST_VAR\);
/Perl
Listen 43499
$ httpd -X -f /m/aru/conf/test.conf
MY_TEST_VAR is
shell: MY_TEST_VAR = Hello there
MY_TEST_VAR is
shell: MY_TEST_VAR = Hello there
I think either modperl_cmd_pass_env() should sync the
vars. as and when it sees one (but this may not be
efficient). Or, modperl_cmd_perldo() should sync
(by calling modperl_env_table_populate() ?) before
doing the eval(). I tried doing this, but couldn't
figure out how to get a pTHX_ !
(The same problem would be applicable to PerlSetEnv as
well, I guess).
Any temporary hacks to fix this, so that I can
continue my testing ?
thx

Hi
It looks like when I @Include a file from a Perl
section, the Perl
sections in that file get processed first, though
there are other stuff
before the Perl sections.
Following is an example (simplified from my real-life
config) :
$ cat /tmp/test.conf
Perl
@Include = /tmp/testvar.conf;
/Perl
Listen 43499
$ cat /tmp/testvar.conf
PerlPassEnv MY_TEST_VAR
Perl
print MY_TEST_VAR = $ENV{MY_TEST_VAR}\n;
/Perl
$ httpd -X -f /tmp/test.conf
[Sun Jul 06 06:15:09 2003] [warn] Syntax error at
/tmp/testvar.conf:5 Use
of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string
at (eval 3) line 1.
So when an Include is found, all perlsections in that
file are processed.
However, as in the above case, these Perl sections
could be depending on
the directives defined previously in the file.
It works if I move the PerlPassEnv to test.conf, above
the Perl section.
Any thoughts ?
thx

Apache::Session::Lock::File hangs under Windows
Hello,
This may be OT, but may be not though Apache::Session is widely used under
mod_perl.
Apache::Session::Lock::File hangs under Windows if you try to remove
session or add data to existing session. This happenes because you cannot
flock($self-{fh},
LOCK_EX) if you already has flock($self-{fh}, LOCK_SH) in Windows.
I wrote to Jeffrey Baker a while ago but has no answer.
Possible patch is:
*** File.old Fri Sep 01 21:21:18 2000

$self-{opened} = 1;
}
+ if ($^O eq 'MSWin32' $self-{read}){flock($self-{fh}, LOCK_UN)}

flock($self-{fh}, LOCK_EX);
$self-{write} = 1;
}

Under mod_perl 1, there is no need to use locking on Win32 since
mod_perl runs single-threaded there. This patch might be useful for
mod_perl 2 on Win32, but LOCK_UN is tricky. Have you seen this?

Apache::Registry - String Compaction == Less RAM?
Hi, Apache::Registry slurps in your Perl modules as strings and then evals them. I thought I could save some RAM by stripping out comments and whitespace before the eval step - so I quickly wrote a Registry-like handler that strips comments. Alas, the experiment failed - I saw no difference in RAM usage at all! I suspect that mod_perl is stripping them for me. But isn't a large string allocated in RAM prior to the eval? Are there any merits in a comment stripping pre-processing step in a Registry-like handler?

ProxyPass not getting type of dynamic images?
Hi, I'm doing a naive one size fits all ProxyPass thing wherein I've got one server simply sitting between the end users and the real machine. So my only lines are: ProxyPass / http://other.server.with.specified.port.com:8082/ ProxyPassReverse / http://other.server.with.specified.port.com:8082/ ProxyReceiveBufferSize 16384 Most of it works fine but I appear to be losing content types. The backend server generates pretty much everything in mod_perl and Template Toolkit. However I generate PNGs on the fly too, with and without a .png extension in some cases. In particular, the PNGs aren't getting through with a mime type. Guess I need to set it somewhere -- any ideas? It all works fine without the proxy in the middle. Cheers Kirk.
Newbie question about mod_perl capabilities
Hi, I am new to mod_perl and am trying to figure out whether it suits my needs or not. Can I use it to intercept any http CONNECT requests Apache receives and answer those?

Re: Combining authen-handler with mod_auth
Thanks! I guess that may be possible, but somewhat problematic since I like to stay with the distros apache-version. Btw, I remember seeing something about APR_HOOK_(LAST|FIRST|...) in the docs on perl.apache.org. Not implemented yet? I'm not sure what docs you're thinking about, but that change should be ok. I know that I'm using those constants in some XS and all is ok. I think a lot of interesting password policies could be implemented if it was possible to run perl-code before and after existing authentication modules. Is it feasible to add this to the current mod_perl as a runtime option? runtime is not likely to be possible. I'm considering a patch that would make the hook behavior configurable as a compile-time option, however - modperl_hooks.c is autogenerated during the config process, so it should be trivial to change the hook order without folks like you needing to patch the code yourself. --Geoff

Those don't take up any space in the actual compiled opcodes. The only space you could save is in the string that the file is initially loaded into and the $eval string that gets built up to pass to eval(). It's probably not worth pursuing, since the savings would be small and there is a risk of breaking code (parsing perl is hard). If you want to see how much it could possibly save, try just stripping a single file before feeding it to Registry and see how much of a difference that makes. I suspect that mod_perl is stripping them for me. Nope, it doesn't do anything like that. But isn't a large string allocated in RAM prior to the eval? Yes, the $eval string is as large as the full contents of the file. - Perrin

mod_perl-1.99_0.9 on Mac OS X 10.2.6
Hi, I heared a lot of people complaining that they can't get mod_perl-1.99_09 running on Mac OS X. Here is a little scenario that worked for me. These are the steps: Sources: Grab the sources from your closest mirrors and untar them. If this is the first time you upgrade to 5.8.0, note that Apple ships 5.6.0 with Mac OS X and both are binary incompatible to each other, so you might have to rebuild some of your modules. perl-5.8.0.tar.gz httpd-2.0.45.tar.gz mod_perl-1.99_09.tar.gz Perl: Compile Perl with iThreads. % cd perl-5.8.0 % sh Configure -de -Dusethreads % make % make test % sudo make install Apache: Compile Apache with MPM worker style % cd httpd-2.0.45 % ./configure --with-mpm=worker % make % sudo make install mod_perl: Last but not least. % cd mod_perl-1.99_09 % perl Makefile.PL MP_AP_PREFIX=/usr/local/apache2 MP_INST_APACHE2=1 MP_USE_DSO=1 MP_COMPAT_1X=0 % make % sudo make install Note: Dont forget to append LoadModule perl_module modules/mod_perl.so and PerlModule Apache2 to your httpd.conf!!! Thats it! Not guaranteed to work for you, here it works fine, at least until now. There are still lots of tests that fail. Cheers, Sebastian Riedel
